October 13th I traveled to Kenosha for a wedding I'd been anticipating all year long... the wedding of Andy & Robin. To say that I've known Andy for a little while now is a gross understatement. I've known Andy as far back as I can remember. When my little brother Andre' first started playing little league he met Andy; they have been best friends ever since. Basically I have two younger brothers. So when I got the phone call earlier this year asking me to photograph his wedding my first reaction was, can't be.... He's still my baby brother.. he can't possibly be getting married. Believe it or not Andy is all grown up and he has most certainly found his perfect match. Robin it was a true pleasure meeting your family. They are so warm and welcoming. I especially enjoyed finally meeting your brother.... his candidness during your ceremony will forever live on in my mind as one of the best spontaneous moments I've ever witnessed at a wedding. Truly unforgettable and utterly adorable. I must apologize to my regular blog visitors.. I don't think I could really do the moment justice by putting it into words here. Thanks again Andy & Robin I hope your honeymoon in Hawaii was full of many more beautiful spontaneous moments!

The highlight of the evening was definitely the best man's speech... I have never heard a better more entertaining, heartwarming speech.... and I'm not just saying that because he's my brother:) I have to post one more photo here of my parents. It was such a treat to photograph a wedding where I also got to hang out with my friends and family. Although I credit my dad with first planting my interest in photography by lending me his 35 mm SLR many, many moons ago... it's rare that I get a photograph with him in it... he tends to be the one behind the camera. Who would have thought?!? I just adore this moment I caught of them together...
